'Add member to list of channels in slack

Is there a way to add a user/member to a list of a hundred or more (existing) slack channels automatically? Perhaps a slack bot, however, I am unable to find any examples of this that don't require listening for new channel creation events.



Solution 1:[1]

Found a No script, no extensions solution:

  1. Type the /who command on a channel you want to add.
  2. Copy the output
  3. Paste it in the channel where you want those people to get invited to
  4. Press Intro/Enter key Slack will ask all those people "that are not in the channel yet". Press the Invite button you'll get list of members invited.

Solution 2:[2]

Every few weeks I need to add a few people to an assortment of channels. Surely the folks at Slack could add a UI screen to allow one to specify the person or persons and then check all the channels that they should be added to.

It's soooooo time consuming to add them now!
